Here are a few last updates regarding the winter season which starts this Sunday (Jan 5 - 9:00 AM, Augsburg dome).
First, I'm excited to introduce Bo Maki as our 2014 winter coach! Bo coached one of our MPLS / STP winter league teams last year. He is a stand-out d mid up the road at UST. He has extensive coaching experience with Orono Youth Lacrosse and Homegrown (UST Tommie Summer Camp Senior Staffer, HGL Sniper Series Clinician, HGL Premier u14 West Head Coach).
Second (Important), please read the Waiver/Registration information I've forwarded from HG (below). You cannot play until you register on the HG site! Many of you have registered on the MPLS site but not on the HG site. You need to register in both places.
Last, please also read the Check-in Logistics information I've forwarded from HG (below). I will not be there the first week but Emily and/or Drew Winter will be our check-in coordinator(s).
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Have a great first week! I'm looking forward to seeing everyone when I'm back for week 2.
